A Prophecy of the Cross
Commentators widely agree that this verse finds its most direct and literal fulfillment in Jesus Christ. The Gospel of John explicitly quotes Scripture when describing how the soldiers did not break Jesus' legs on the cross (John 19:36). This event is seen as the fulfillment of this psalm, demonstrating God's sovereign care over His Son.
